Smooth text animations with 30fps?
Is this even possible?
I am on linux and tried to create text animations (simple side-scrolling) at 30fps, result is barely readable. I had to use 60fps, which looks nice, but tends to kill my CPU on playback Is this a bug in my video editors or is 30fps really not enough? Here a 60fps and a 25fps example: http://carnager.xssn.at/mini60.mp4 http://carnager.xssn.at/mini25.mp4 Last edited by Rasi; 14th November 2012 at 14:27. Reason: added examples |

Typically you add motion blur, avoid thin lines, slow the panning rate, ease the keyframes
The most important factor in your case is to slow the animation. A typical "guideline" when shooting 24p pans is 7 seconds end to end (the so called "7 second rule") . 25p is going to be roughly the same pan rate. Motion graphics roughly follows the same guidelines . Your animation is roughly 2x that speed |

Also note that while you ask about 30fps, you show 25fps example. Depending on playback environment (including software and hardware) there can be very noticeable difference between two. If it is barely readable to you - maybe this is the case too. Cause for me it is perfectly readable. Though not that smooth as 60 fps of course.
